11 years ago, Diana Duyser of Fort Lauderdale made a grilled cheese sandwich and, upon taking her first bite, noticed what she said was a likeness of the Virgin Mary burned into the bread. She quickly put the rest of the sandwich in a plastic container padded with cotton for safe keeping in her freezer.
Two years ago, Duyser put the sandwich on EBay, where internet casino Golden Palace bought it for $28,000 and the frying pan that cooked it, for $6,000. Duyser recently had the sandwich tattooed on her chest to "keep it close to her heart."
The tattoo artist spent two hours on the sandwich tattoo and used a lot of yellow ink to convey cheesiness. It was smaller than most actual grilled cheese sandwiches.
Mysterious power seemed to circulate around the sandwich. Diana believes it won her $23,000 at the casino and kept her husband healthier than he would have otherwise been. (She didn't say if it was the Golden Palace Casino!).
Strangers spot Diana on the street and line up before her when she makes public appearances. It seems that people think that because the Virgin Mary came to her via a toasted cheese sandwich, that she has a special gift.
